Custom-Sized Natural Fiber Runner Rugs

Why Get a Cut-To-Size Rug Runner

Beyond simply the look of a room, there are many reasons why a cut-to-size rug runner can work in your home:

1. Gives grip. Floors can get slippery, and rugs have always been there to combat falls. However, regular rugs don’t usually fit in narrow spaces. With a cut-to-size rug runner, you can get all the grip benefits of a rug but in a shape that works for the size of the walkway. And be sure to get a rug pad for extra slip protection!
2. Protect floors. Runners can be used in high-traffic hallways or entryways to protect the floors. Natural fiber rug runners are durable, so they can protect the integrity of your floors for the long haul while standing up to the wear and tear of constant use.
3. Comfort. It’s always nicer to step onto a comfy rug than it is to step on a cold floor. With a cut-to-size rug runner, you can get that comfort in any hallway in your home.
4. Noise reduction. Certain areas of your home, like stairways and hallways, may be more echoey or just make more noise as people walk through them. Using a rug runner helps cut down noise in your home.
5. Customizable. A custom runner means you never have to worry about your space’s size limitations. Instead, you give us the dimensions and angles you want and we can make you the cut-to-length runner that fits your home’s needs.
